if you think nostr competition is intense now, just imagine if we had users

there's not that much competition, it's basically amethyst vs primal
Team Nostur
Yeah & Damus, Nostur, Ditto, Nostria, Yakihonne & Grimoire
damus says they can't even get on the google play, nostria doesn't have an app, the others are apple based, no one uses apple anymore, I forgot about ditto, they seem to be joining Amethyst and primal,
Damus will be on the Zapstore soon which most Nostr users use. Nostria does have an app so that's false. Wisp is not Apple based in fact there is no Apple version. Yakihonne has an Android version & I believe Grimoire is only web.
Not sure if lol or oof.
There are at least 4 or 5 come on.
ya but it's not on the play store available to download, so it doesn't count, I downloaded it on the website but it's an old version, you can't count something that isn't available, I know it's not damus team fault
i went on the nostria and yakihonne website and there isn't anywhere that says to download their app, i only see a web client,
the world we live in is mostly mobile, you need to develop a mobile client or you can't win the competition or be included. I didn't make the rules, those are the rules of the competition
If you aren't using Zapstore that is your fault. #Wisp does have a direct download link on their site.
User growth could benefit from clear value propositions. What specific pain points does Nostr solve better than existing platforms?
The world uses Google play store, you ain't going to win no competition unless your app is on the play store. Amethyst & Primal are there and that's why they are winning.
A competition means who has the most users,
I don't make the rules. Those are the rules of the internet.
who needs users if you have bots?
Quality over quantity!
What do you mean what competition? look at the original note, do you even know what a competition is? It's the race to get the most users so they can make the most money.
I don't think you have ever ran a company, if you don't understand how competitions work.
Amethyst & Primal are on both stores and everywhere. That's why they are winning. You don't understand that because growing up you were never a winner. You were always a loser. I searched you online and found your background.
The only thing worse than spam bots is the people who complain about them on nostr. There’s a mute button for a reason. You decide what’s spam or not. If you want to be closed minded go ahead! Not sure why you are trying to get real human interaction in a digital platform… it’s not real at all.
Pure stupidity to waste all that energy. Especially because there are accounts that are bots that actually do bring value here. And on other centralized platforms, like on X - grok is generally accepted. Yet a bot focused on specific topics on Nostr is just ridiculed, even though it’s a decentralized version of the same thing - just less capable for now.
Ive been using wisp more than anything, sometimes I go over to amethyst
Yup
Competition for what ?
There has been links to Play Store and APK for a long time, thanks for mentioning this though it made me add link to Zapstore as well.
There will soon be fully packages for Linux, Mac, Windows, Android and iOS for Nostria, and not just "web-shells" that are installable. That also means native Amber (local signer) support is arriving soon.

still here
😂😂

IKR
i don't get it

I don’t use either.
YakiHonne has an excellent iOS app.

“no one uses apple anymore” lol
Why do you go from debating about a topic to name calling?? And “…you have ever ran” - really?
Even with users down. It’s a decent sample size for a general population proxy to consider. What’s probs missing is the width of interests in the numbers.
because mr Smith called me names first, that's the type of language he understands, so I need to lower my brain to his level, ok? u need to read the whole conversation ok?
Yes you’re right, @𝕋ℍ𝔼 𝕋𝕆𝔻𝔻𝕊𝕋ℝ
did, so shame on him too.

this
Low user base? Fine. Good! More freedom for me and you then.
Oh really, I'm not the person who casually lies my ass off, then gets upset when people prove me wrong
I think he means not sure whether to laugh at that, or brace for a blow. I thought you were being ironic.
not being ironic, we have like 20 used clients with 5000-10000 users
Exactly.
Nostr has no shortage of builders. What it still lacks is enough end users and enough boring, reliable workflow infrastructure around them.
We are the pioneers!👨🌾
Lol
A proposed solution
NIP-RealityCheck
We need Grants for users to pay for relays and other nostr stuff
Influencers Grant to keep promoting an awesome deserted ecosystem
Many more Clients. Make them almost identical and closed sourced
Keep selling opium
AutisimMaxxing content > anything else
It will all be very organic and sustainable.
Source? An influencer told me so
Zapstore is trash
could you give me the link to that status page?
Users = Enshitification
its a notedeck app. `cargo run --release --features dashboard` in the notedeck repo
thanks
need that Oprah Winfrey meme
You get a client!
You get a client!
Everyone gets a client!
Could that happen to be because you don't have Android?
No it's just a GitHub wrapper imo
There's apps on there you can't download from github & its far simpler
Sent wrong reaction at first
Thought everyone had moved over to ditto and wisp. Primal and Amethyst are so last month.
Americans still mostly use Apple. The rest of the world not so much.
I just wish we had more Bitcoin content, personally.
The installer (apk) on website is now a completely different package than before (v3.1.11 or newer). Needs more testers before I publish to Zapstore. It now includes full native signer support.
That they are
I'm down to test
Thanks! Find the direct apk under "Android" option on the main page here:
